<dl compact="compact">
<dt><em>Description</em>:</dt>
<dd><p>This function is called at the end of the Fortran main program, if it has
been compiled with the <samp>-fcoarray=lib</samp> option.
</p>
</dd>
<dt><em>Syntax</em>:</dt>
<dd><p><code>void _gfortran_caf_finish (void)</code>
</p>
</dd>
<dt><em>NOTES</em></dt>
<dd><p>For non-Fortran programs, it is recommended to call the function at the end
of the main program.  To ensure that the shutdown is also performed for
programs where this function is not explicitly invoked, for instance
non-Fortran programs or calls to the system&rsquo;s exit() function, the library
can use a destructor function.  Note that programs can also be terminated
using the STOP and ERROR STOP statements; those use different library calls.
